Description
A terrace of twenty-three houses, numbered 1 to 23, forming part of Edwardes Square, dating to the early 19th century. The houses are three storeys high with three windows each, although number 13 is four storeys. They are constructed of brown brick with stuccoed ground floors and round-headed doorways. Many houses feature ironwork window guards on balconies, although some have been altered. Small front gardens are set behind spearhead railings along the street. Number 13, centrally located within the terrace, has a cement cornice, a triangular blocking course, and a notable verandah to the first floor. The terrace forms a group with numbers 25 to 48.
